Three words: Leather. Fringe. Rules.
I know I don't have to convince you how cool fringe jackets and chaps are, so I won't waste our time. I'll just assume you agree (and you should).
So on this "Thursday Purseday," I'll obsess over fringe, starting with the most expensive tier:
The Jimmy Choo Snake-Embossed Fringe Clutch = the most fan-freaking-tastic "something blue" you could ever carry on your wedding day. Seriously. Screw the bouquet, this deserves a processional itself.
But it ain't too thrifty at a cool $595. Now I love designer handbags just as much as the gal next to me planning her platinum wedding, but this might be a little much for a blue clutch on my budget. So let's see what cheaper fringed goodies we can scoop up...
The ASOS red fringed clutch for about $160. So fun, right? I want to shake this around on the dance floor at our wedding...and beyond.
Is this still a little too champagne for our beer-keg budgets? OK, here's one last fringed treat:
THREE color options! Unfortunately, they're not available online at Melie Bianco anymore, but that just means all three options can be bought elsewhere CHEAPER! We're talking $40-ish, people. Now that's a good, clean deal.
Love that fringe. You dig?

Ok so if you had just described these to me, I would have made a terrible face because fringe scares me. But I LOVE these!! I can't even pick a favorite!

Ok I have to say - even more than the purses, I'm loving that you said "my Nicole". Hahaha. So adorable. And that blue Jimmy Choo is fierce! Work it girl. So glad you jumped in to Thursday Purseday!

GIRL you better get over that fear of fringe & buy yourself a leather fringe vest or something! But loving these is a step in the right direction! :)
